Welcome to Minnequa Elementary School
Welcome to the 2011-2012 school year!
I would like to take a moment to welcome all students and families to Minnequa Elementary School. We are so excited to get the year started. Teachers have been working very hard to prepare their classrooms and schedules so that students have a warm, safe and friendly learning environment. We have many exciting things that happen each year at Minnequa. Please use this website as a tool to find upcoming events for students and parents. We believe that parents are a vital part of educating children. We ask for your support and attendance to activities that we will host throughout the year. We want to remind parents that we have a parent resource room available for parents who wish to volunteer, would like information on a variety of parenting topics or information on education, and we have a computer available for parents to use. Please make it a point to stop by and visit our resource room. We look forward to working with the children and families of the Minnequa community. Welcome back!
Sincerely,
Melissa Patterson
Principal
and the Minnequa Staff
